Read the article from Gamespot here first.

I couldn't wait for this game, but now I have to choose a version!?!?! Dayum, which one to get? As a lucky owner of all three systems, there will actually be a "decision" in choosing which console to buy the game for.

Gamecube has Link as a special guest character! Awesome!
XBOX has Spawn as a special guest character! Awesome!
PS2 has Heihachi from the Tekken series as a special guest character! Ummmm, yawn.

Link is awesome, but I've been a big fan of Spawn for a while now. This is a great idea that many companies need to notice when they decide to release simultaneously on multiple systems. If anyone is as excited about this game as I am, speak up!

Soul Calibur is still my favorite game from the Dreamcast and it was a release game! Adding Spawn in there is just kicka$$.

I like the PS2's controller for fighting, but I'll probably get the GC version for Link, even though those controllers seem like sh!t for a fighting game :(

I'd say Link. Perfect character for a weapon based fighting game. Spawn does look sweet though

Link is good as the flagship character most associated with Nintendo that would work in this game.

As far as flagship Xbox characters tho, instead of Spawn (who still kicks much ass)...how badass would this have been:


Master Chief...with multiple weapons, including one of those badass Covenant energy swords!!!!!

BTW: Dayum...now I know what it's like to be kami when any news about LOTR is released.
BTW2: I think I just wet myself, much like kami! :p

There is ONE good thing about the August release date...for me anyway...
PERFECT timing for Mrs. Tallgeese to get this for me as a pre-order with some cool included shiz from EB/Gamestop/etc. :D

BTW: Damn...life is good!

I'd say Link but I'm not interested in the game and I wouldn't want to be playing a fighting game on a GC controller regardless...
